What do you TOW?

I have an 18' 5000lb Wolf Pup TT and planning the first long trip to Durango, CO the first week of August. Excited to put it to use and test out the new Bilstein shocks.

How many miles do you have on your 08 Yukon?

1979 Sleekcraft with a Mercruiser 350. Usually pulled by my Megacab but she is now reserved for the 5th Wheel and the Burban pulls the boat

Get a good brake controller and look into a transmission cooler. I would just check over your brakes and make sure that they are up to the task.

How heavy does your camper weigh? Is yours the Denali with a 6.2 or the 5.3? Where in Southern IL do you live?

So the TruCool did amazing. There was about a 40 degree difference. The temps never got over 165.

The autoride did ok. There was a noticeable improvement but still not as level as I want it. So I will be putting the helper bags in at some point in time.

24' boat, loaded with gear. Total weight ends up to be between 7,000 - 7,200lbs. Total gross weight, car, boat and gear is over 14,000.
Used to shamelessly tow it with a 2002 suburban, 5.3 engine and it took some patience going up some of the hills. The trip would take around 3 - 3.5 hours using the 2002. Now we have the 2015 Denali with 6.2 and make it in 2.5 hours.
